It's rare that you complete a New Years Resolution on Day 1, but oh well! And to think I was going to choose a hard one like run a thousand miles or something.

    nice cannondale!

    A little tip to make the bike fit better, the seat should be high enough that when the pedal is at the bottom of revolution and your heal is on the pedal your leg should be perfectly straight and not bent.
  • nshack 2 years ago
    I was so going to mention that... bike geeks.
  • siggo 2 years ago

    So ace. The timing/editing of the genius musicianship that is Bonnie Tyler was incredible, I was laughing so hard. That and at approx. 0:55, when your videographer (and the collective audience) is like, wait! He's got it, he's got ... oh.

    Congrats!!!

    How are you with roller-blading? I only ask because I think a video of someone learning to roller-blade would be even funnier! Wear padding if you do it--I don't want to feel bad for you, I just want to laugh.

    :]

    Where are you? CA or AZ?
  • Andrew Ryno 2 years ago
    If it were out of those two, I'd say California. I haven't seen one place in Arizona that looks like that.
  • Amir 2 years ago
    Correct!

    Yes... Excellent! I can se now that the force is strong in you amir. Use it! And use it well. And soon you will win Tour de France and bathe in champagne with Lance Armstrong. Tho remember! Champagne leads to drunkenness, drunkenness leads to embarrassing moments, embarrassing moments leads to the dark side.

    Wow! I thought you had it when the music started... I was wrong. Then I thought you had it when the music started again... I was wrong. Then I thought you had it when the music started again... I was wrong. Then I thought you had it when the music started again... I was wrong. Then I thought you had it when the music started again and I was right! Proud of you!

    So nice to see a genuine (reality based) Amir video...

    Congrats on actually keeping and achieving a New Year's resolution!

  • Rev. Jeremy Duncan 2 years ago
    good job on learning in one day. cause i think it took me like 2 days. then again, i was about 4 years old, so...

    j/f/w/y - way to set a goal and annihilate it.
  •  
  • katie k 2 years ago
    great job! i bet it's harder to learn at this point than when you're a kid-- your bones are more flexible back then after all.

    out of curiosity, why didn't you learn back then?

  • reiwan 2 years ago
    They should make a bike that plays that song whenever it starts moving. That would be awesome! And the faster you go, the louder it gets.
  • Jane Marcus 2 years ago
    oh totally agree.
  • fczuardi plus 2 years ago
    +1 to that idea!
  •  
  • Oddly enough, Mike Escamilla rode to that song in a BMX video about a year back.

    I have sent this video to all of my non-bike-riding friends to let them know there is hope.

    I feel a teeny bit sorry for you that you couldn't ride a bike until like 21 or something.
    But even still huge congrats. I felt quite proud of you when you did it!
    I learnt to ride a bike at like 7 or something. But i can't really boast cos it was my brothers best friends old bike. & i could only ride down alley ways cos the place i lived in was a dump. Also i grazed all my knuckles on walls while i was learning.

    Even still :D Loves xx

    Second of all : Am I the only one who noticed the insane sizes of the homes? They are fooking huge!
